In the end, what did this whole Tomb Raider thing
accomplish?

Microsoft probably would not have said anything about timed exclusivity if it wasnt for the thousands of enraged people that hate Xbox that complained all over the internet. I heard that Microsoft was getting death threats over this.

For all we know, Tomb Raider could have been a forever exclusive, but after the massive backlash from internet users, Microsoft and the Tomb Raider fans changed their minds.

Tried to cover up Share Play coming to ps4 in the next ps4 update.It did steal media attention away from Sony and Share Play but in the end won't matter.

Share Play is the 'next generation' multiplayer experience. Anyone who tries to deny how epic it is for online gaming with friends is foolish.

Although xbox gets TR first, once ps4 owners get it they will be able to enjoy the single player experience of it with a friend taking turns by virtually passing the controller back and forth. Well enjoying likely higher resolution/framerate and dlc.

Unbearable is it? The suffering of strangers, the agony of friends.There's a secret song at the center of the world and its sound is like razors through flesh

Well, for me personally, it didn't do much. I'm a PS4 owner so it's a bit of a shocker to see it as a timed exclusive for XBO, but I was gonna wait for a ' complete' edition anyway, so it doesn't really affect me.

I never like it when Nintendo, Sony or MS ' buy' a 3rd party game to be exclusive to their system. First of all, I think all gamers should be able to play their favourite games (3rd party) on the system of their choice, and seeing MS spend a whole lot of money to keep PS4 owners from playing Tomb Raider 2, it's just a bit pathetic.

I feel that IF you're gonna spend that kinda money on an exclusive, at least create a completely new and original game, instead of just buying a game that already exists.

To be totally honest, it's a bit sad that TR2 being an XBO exclusive was pretty much THE big news from the MS show, and they didn't really have that much else to announce that was really interesting.

I know some people are impressed by Quantum Break, but personally I wasn't that excited from what I saw.

I hope they'll have a much better Tokyo Game Show. They need to announce totally new and original stuff that will blow people away, if they want to compete with Sony.
